Using Your VAIO Computer
Notes on using the Bluetooth functionality❑The data transfer rate varies, depending on the following conditions:
❑Obstacles, such as walls, located between devices
❑Distance between devices
❑Material used in walls
❑Proximity to microwaves and cordless telephones
❑Radio frequency interference and other environmental conditions
❑Device configuration
❑Type of software application
❑Type of operating system
❑Size of file being exchanged
❑Note that due to limitations of the Bluetooth standard, large files may occasionally be corrupted during continuous transfer due to electromagnetic interference from the environment.
❑All Bluetooth devices must be certified to make sure that the applicable standard requirements are maintained. Even if standards are met, individual device performance, specifications, and operation procedures can vary. Data exchange may not be possible in all situations.
❑As general characteristics of Bluetooth technology, video and audio may go out of synchronization if you play videos on your computer with audio output from the connected Bluetooth device.
❑The 2.4 GHz band, with which Bluetooth devices or wireless LAN devices work, is used by various devices. Bluetooth devices use the technology to minimize the interference from other devices that use the same wave length. Simultaneous use of the Bluetooth functionality and wireless communication devices, however, may cause radio interference and result in poorer communication speeds and distances than the standard values.
